This is a fantastic location. A very large space to spend a week or so. 5 minute walk to shops, grocery store and many bars and cafes. 7 minute walk to train station. All amenities that you will need for your stay. Easy to follow check in and check out with great communication if required. The stairs to apartment are tough if not very mobile. Definitely recommended for your stay in Glasgow.

Great location
The property was ideal for us visiting Glasgow Green.
Please note:
The stairs to the property are difficult it is not just the number of floors but the depth of the stairs are not standard but higher, we would avoid going back to the property too often because of this.

Stay in Glasgow
We stayed in this apartment for a week. Everything was clean and comfortable. Kitchen supplies were adequate for our needs. The clothes washer works well (though the door is a bit sticky), but note that there is a drying rack, not a machine dryer. Just a warning that this is a 4th floor walk up and there is no elevator. Jacqui was very responsive to our requests and questions.
The apartment location is close to bus and rail transit, which helped with getting around Glasgow. We also appreciated having a parking spot!
